I definitely will not fix quilts! I've done some minor repairs on quilts that my sister gave us for wedding --hand quilted and hand stitched--but forget the 1/4" seams! Some gave way and had to be gently re-stitched. Ditto on a g-ma's FG that was made by my g-ma--a dog tore a couple of the hexies and I had to again gently ladder stitch together. So when my SIL asked for help refurbishing her g-mother's quilt, I asked to see it first and then took her to a LQS that specializes in antique quilts. We all agreed that cleaning with Restore very gently, laying flat to dry, then displaying folded on the end of bed out of sunlight was best idea! When people have these antique family quilts, do they really use them on their beds?
